Paint The Town Red

Yeah this is for my peoples

Just gettin' drunk on the weekends

Jump in the deep end, weeded by mid-week

Been so pissed that I couldn't even speak

Buckle at the knees, stumble on my feet

Slur my words, my legs don't work

While my friends yellin', "Jes, don't get with her!

Can't you see that this floozie is a hood rat?"

"True that, my apologies, Suzie, I'm too maggit"

Ain't ever been smart, shit, I'm a retard

Creepin' in the back of every bar where I been barred

All I ever wanted was a cheap glass, sneak in a flask

Stop buyin' beer, I'm gettin' wild in here

"Pleased to meet you, my name is—oh shit

You got a dollar for another cold drink?" (haha)

"Yeah, why not when all that's next up

Is a five-day week, the stress and headfucks, get crunk

This crown knows no halo

One day I'ma lay low and stay home

But till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

All I know is some things forever change

I ain't gonna lie, I tried to self-medicate

Till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

"I was a teen drunk off brew"

"I was a teen drunk off brew"

"'Cause the streets is raw"

Cop this hot shit all up in your mosh pit

Drunk as fuck,

Biggie bangin' on a jukebox, bitches wishin' it was U2

Jesse hangin' off a rooftop thinkin' he's too cool

Inside it's 2 AM, lockin', poppin'

Outside mayhem's got dropkicks boxin'

Sounds like they've sent cops in to stop 'em

Now watch eight men stomp a hothead, squash the problem

Slay the conflict, spray the optics

Piggy-in-the-middle is a painful option

Pay the fine, they make the profit

All in the name of progress, it's nonsense

They ain't scared of the grog

Next Friday it's hair of the dog, yo

Care for a scotch on the town

Smartarse alci like Charles Makowski,

This crown knows no halo

One day I'ma lay low and stay home

But till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

All I know is some things forever change

I ain't gonna lie, I tried to self-medicate

Till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

Okay

If you in a club

I advise you to put your drinks down

And head to the dance floor

Hey

Life's a bitch, she spiked my drink

Woke up in the morning like, "ah shit"

Right

I got an angel on my shoulder sayin', "Slow down

You gotta work in the morning, you should call it an evenin'"

While the devil's on the other sayin', "Go hard

There's more liquor needs drinkin', don't you think about leavin'"

Which way do I go now? Caught in the struggle 'tween

Common sense and the content of a bottle, be

Spittin' these tunes while I'm swillin' the Stout

It's all tickety-boo till I figure it out, you know?

Yo, this crown it knows no halo

I lay low, scoutin' out a [pouch] to take home

Self-medicated, yo, I take it, just say so

If it helps me escape from whatever is painful

But I can feel that change is near

Yo, real cats face their fears, save your tears

I'ma make it clear and take you there

My naked stare's like taming bears, you dig?

This crown knows no halo

One day I'ma lay low and stay home

But till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

All I know is some things forever change

I ain't gonna lie, I tried to self-medicate

Till then, paint the town red

Till then we paint the town red (hey)

Paint the town red

We paint the town red

Paint the town red

We paint the town red
